There are three major manufacturers of jet engines. First, a name quite common for most Americans and non-Americans alike, General Electric. Jet engine manufacturing for GE is actually it's most lucrative enterprise, awarding the company with around $18 billion dollars a year. Following closely behind is the also well known Boeing and then the lesser known of the three to the common public, Pratt & Whitney.
